You will be getting interest for your money, but please note that, you can keep only maximum 1 lakh rupee in your account, if you need to remove this limit you need to do a full KYC with the bank by visiting the branch. And if you are not keeping money more than 1 lakh, you do not have to visit the branch quickly. However, all the 811 account is considered ad Limited KYC account, so you have to visit the branch within 1 year time, from the date your created the account to do the Full KYC. If you fail to do it in one year time, your account will be closed.

First, Even Though you are creating the account using Aadhaar number and Pan number, Authentication is made only on the Aadhaar number using Aadhaar based OTP. No authentication is made on the Pan number, so your name on the Pan Card should be exactly same as like on the Aadhaar card.

If your name is not the same, your account will be created as link normal, but after 2,3 days after the verification process from the team, your account will get Debit Freezed. In that case you either need to send them by email, the self attested copy of the corrected name on the Pan Card or need to Visit the branch to do a Full KYC to get the freeze removed. So better to make sure the name exactly same before applying for the account.

Secondly, you will not be able to create an account if your mobile number is not added to your Aadhaar Card.

One more thing to keep in mind that, if you created your account successfully, it will be better to keep waiting for few hours to use your card. Because for the activation of card it will take some time, since mostly there system will take some time in updating your mobile number, email address etc to their network. If you experience any issue please contact the customer support.
